A massive manhunt is underway following the attack that killed 26, as Congress faces internal divisions over intelligence failures and accountability.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor stated that the main focus after the Pahalgam terror attack should not be on determining an intelligence failure.
Even as Tharoor acknowledged failures his position, in many ways, is different from the Congress and its top leadership. (ANI PHOTO)

Overview

  • The Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir claimed 26 lives, including one Nepali national, with many others injured in the tourist hotspot of Baisaran Valley.
  • The Indian government has suspended the Indus Waters Treaty with Pakistan indefinitely and expelled all Pakistani nationals living in India as part of its counterterrorism measures.
  • Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowed to track down and punish those responsible for the attack, with the Army, CRPF, and J&K Police conducting a large-scale manhunt for the perpetrators.
  • Congress MP Shashi Tharoor called for postponing accountability demands, citing global intelligence limitations, but faced backlash from party colleague Udit Raj, who questioned his loyalty to Congress.
  • Congress leadership, including Mallikarjun Kharge, has supported the government’s measures but demanded a detailed probe into the security lapses that allowed the attack to occur despite a three-tier security system.
